Sobre este artículo
(Cape Town: Nasionale Boekhandel, 1963). 8vo; original papered boards; pictorial dustwrapper; pp. (x) + 85. Dustwrapper somewhat soiled, sunned and a little edgeworn; boards a bit bowed; endpapers foxed; upper hinge just starting between half-title and title page. Fair condition. "The Magnolia Tree is based upon the impression made on the poet's mind by the Japanese films Roshomon and The Gates of Hell and by a strange ill-written Japanese short story, called Kesa and Morito, about a soldier who plans to kill a man he does not hate for the sake of a woman he does not love. Out of these rather unpromising ingredients Mr. Manson has produced a play of remarkable poetic and dramatic quality and power.
Altogether, a rare play that will greatly augment the reputation that Mr. Manson is building up both in South Africa and overseas." .
